Basketball, 1926 When the basketball squad began its training under the supervision of Coach Rebol, it worked from the very beginning with an ambition to win for itself the respect and admiration of the people and students. The first squad consisted of about twenty men selected by the Coach. Most of the letter men of ’25 were members of the team again, with the exception of Cole and Easbey. Several new members were also placed on the squad, who worked hard to be worthy of their honors. The team was very successful in the majority of the games in which they participated. The most interesting episode in the basketball history of Chinook was the Invitational Tournament held here January 29 and 30. The teams represented were Malta. Fort Benton. Harlem. Havre and Chinook. On the whole the tournament was very successful, Harlem winning first place was awarded a large cup. while Havre and Fort Benton received banners for the second and third places. Although the Chinook team did not win any game played, the boys worked hard and followed the rules well. Good sportsmanship and friendliness were shown throughout the tournament. On the last evening of this event, a dance w?as given by C. H. S. in honor of the visiting teams. Although many games were played before the District Meet at Great Falls, we consider this most w'orthy of mention. Chinook team, winning fifth place, ranked higher at the meet this year than it has for the past five years. The boys won three out of four games and although they did not come home as complete winners they placed higher than Havre, who placed sixth. The season has led us toward the road of success on which wre hope we shall journey throughout the next season. Nigga. nigga. hot potata. Half past allegata. Bim! Bam! Bologata— Chicka-wa-daw! Chincok High School. Raw'! Raw! Raw'! When you're up. you're up— When you’re down you’re down— When you’re up against Chinook You're up-side-down! Stand on your head or stand on you feet: Chinook!
